I woke up in a white room
with white lace curtains.
Snow covered landscape;
I’m in Memphis for certain
Yesterday, it took over three hours
just to travel the last twenty miles.
But nothing is like my wife’s family
always being greeted with smiles
I was hoping for a White Christmas.
You’d be surprise how simple I am.
Be careful what you wish for
God may be listening to your plan.
Most of the nation is covered
with that dangerous and beautiful thing
I am grateful for arriving safely
for my wife’s happiness is everything.
She wanted to see her family,
her father, uncles and aunts.
I ve kept her in Southwest Texas too long;
this trip I most willingly grant.
So, here we are now
in a snowy southern wonderland.
Waiting for Christmas dinner to come;
a present only my wife can understand
